"We have enjoyed being part of the Ashland community for the past four summers, participating in the Ashland Farmers Market each week," Jules said. "During that time, we have come to know many people in Ashland and have found they welcome our food and desserts. Many of our Framingham customers are actually Ashland residents."
"So when we realized we needed additional kitchen and storage space to keep up with growing demand in Framingham, we found the Telechron building in Ashland. The rent and location were perfect for our plan to make high-quality food from scratch for wholesale and retail, and to make frequent deliveries to our Framingham store. Finally, we have to admit that Economic Development Director Beth Reynolds, made a really convincing pitch for investing in Ashland!"
